NOTE:Certain SiriusXM Guardian™ connected services
are dependent on an operational Uconnect
system, cellular network availability that is
compatible with the device in your vehicle, and
GPS network availability. Not all features of
SiriusXM Guardian™ are available everywhere at
all times, particularly in remote or enclosed areas.
How It Works

1. Push the SOS Call button; the indicator light will turn green indicating a call has been
placed.

NOTE:
In case the SOS Call button is accidentally
pushed, there is a 10-second delay before
the SOS call is placed. The system will
verbally alert you that a call is about to be
made. To cancel the SOS Call connection,
push the SOS Call button on the rearview
mirror or overhead console or press the
Cancel button on the touchscreen within 10
seconds.
During an SOS Call, the Bluetooth®-paired
phone is disconnected so incoming or
outgoing calls will go through your mobile
device versus the hands-free system which
is not available due to the SOS Call. 2. Once a connection between the vehicle and a
SiriusXM Guardian™ Customer Care agent is
made, the agent will stay on the line with you.
NOTE:Calls between the vehicle occupants and the
SiriusXM Guardian™ Customer Care center may be
recorded or monitored for quality assurance
purposes. Through your enrollment in and use of
the SiriusXM Guardian™ connected services, you
consent to being recorded.
SOS Call System Limitations
Vehicles that have been purchased in the US and
that travel into Mexico and Canada may have
limited services. In particular, responses to SOS
calls or other emergency services may be
unavailable or very limited. Vehicles purchased
outside the United States and Canada are unable
to receive SiriusXM Guardian™ connected
services. If the SOS Call system detects a malfunction, any
of the following may occur at the time the
malfunction is detected:The light will continuously be illuminated red.
The screen will display the following message
“Vehicle phone requires service. Please contact
your dealer.”
An in-vehicle audio message will state “Vehicle
phone requires service. Please contact your
dealer.”
Even if the SOS Call system is fully functional,
factors beyond FCA US LLC’s control may prevent
or stop SOS Call system operation. These include,
but are not limited to, the following factors:
The ignition key is in OFF position.
The vehicle’s electrical systems are not intact.
The vehicle battery loses power or becomes
disconnected during a vehicle crash.
The SOS Call system software and/or hardware
is damaged during a vehicle crash.
LTE (voice/data) or 4G (data) coverage and/or
GPS signals are unavailable or obstructed.
Network congestion.
Weather conditions.
Buildings, structures, geographic terrain, or
tunnels.

MULTIMEDIA249
(Continued)
(Continued)
If your vehicle loses battery power for any reason
(including during or after an accident), the SOS Call
system, among other vehicle systems, will not
operate.
Requirements
This feature is available only on vehicles sold in
the US or Canada.
Vehicle must be properly equipped with the Siri
-
usXM Guardian™ connected services. Vehicle
must be registered with SiriusXM Guardian™
and have an active subscription that includes
the applicable feature.
Vehicle must have an operable LTE (voice/data)
or 4G (data) network connection compatible
with your device.
Vehicle must be powered in the ON/RUN or ACC
(Accessory) position with a properly functioning
electrical system.
Automatic SOS — If Equipped
Automatic SOS is a hands-free safety service that
can immediately connect you with help in the event
that your vehicle’s airbags deploy. After an
accident, a live agent will contact you through the
Uconnect system and alert emergency services.
NOTE:An active SiriusXM Guardian™ subscription is
required for this feature to function.
WARNING!
Never place anything on or near the vehicle’s
LTE (voice/data) or 4G (data) and GPS
antennas. You could prevent LTE (voice/data)
or 4G (data) and GPS signal reception, which
can prevent your vehicle from placing an
emergency call.
Do not add any aftermarket electrical equip -
ment to the vehicle’s electrical system. This
may prevent your vehicle from sending a
signal to initiate an emergency call. To avoid
interference that can cause the SOS Call
system to fail, never add aftermarket equip -
ment (e.g., two-way mobile radio, CB radio,
data recorder, etc.) to your vehicle’s electrical
system or modify the antennas on your
vehicle. IF YOUR VEHICLE LOSES POWER FOR
ANY REASON (INCLUDING DURING OR AFTER
AN ACCIDENT), NEITHER THE VEHICLE
BRANDED APPS NOR THE SIRIUSXM
GUARDIAN™ CONNECTED SERVICES WILL
OPERATE.
The Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) turns
on the Air Bag Warning Light on the instru -
ment panel if a malfunction in any part of the
air bag system is detected. If the Air Bag
Warning Light is illuminated, the air bag
system may not be working properly and the
SOS Call system may not be able to send a
signal to the SiriusXM Guardian™ Customer
Care center. If the Air Bag Warning Light is illu -
minated, have an authorized dealer service
your vehicle immediately.
WARNING!
Ignoring the Rearview Mirror Light could mean
you will not have SOS Call services if needed.
If the Rearview Mirror Light is illuminated,
have an authorized dealer service the SOS
Call system immediately.

If anyone in the vehicle could be in danger
(e.g., fire or smoke is visible, dangerous road
conditions or location), do not wait for voice
contact from a SiriusXM Guardian™
Customer Care agent. All occupants should
exit the vehicle immediately and move to a
safe location.

Failure to perform scheduled maintenance
and regular inspection of your vehicle may
result in vehicle damage, accident or injury.

Towing With HSA
HSA will also provide assistance to mitigate roll
back while towing a trailer.
Ready Alert Braking (RAB)
RAB may reduce the time required to reach full
braking during emergency braking situations. It
anticipates when an emergency braking situation
may occur by monitoring how fast the throttle is
released by the driver. The Electronic Brake
Control system will prepare the brake system for a
panic stop.
Traction Control System (TCS)
The TCS monitors the amount of wheel spin of
each of the driven wheels. If wheel spin is
detected, the TCS may apply brake pressure to the
spinning wheel(s) and/or reduce engine power to
provide enhanced acceleration and stability. A
feature of the TCS, Brake Limited Differential (BLD)
functions similarly to a limited slip differential and
controls the wheel spin across a driven axle. If one
wheel on a driven axle is spinning faster than the
other, the system will apply the brake of the
spinning wheel. This will allow more engine power
to be applied to the wheel that is not spinning. BLD
may remain enabled even if TCS and Electronic
Stability Control (ESC) are in reduced modes.
Trailer Sway Control (TSC)
TSC uses sensors in the vehicle to recognize an
excessively swaying trailer and will take the
appropriate actions to attempt to stop the sway.
NOTE:TSC cannot stop all trailers from swaying. Always
use caution when towing a trailer and follow the
trailer tongue weight recommendations
Úpage 181. When TSC is functioning, the ESC Activation/
Malfunction Indicator Light will flash, the engine
power may be reduced and you may feel the
brakes being applied to individual wheels to
attempt to stop the trailer from swaying. TSC is
disabled when the ESC system is in the “Partial
Off” or “Full Off” modes.

Blind Spot Assist Cameras
There are cameras located in the exterior mirrors
to assist in blind spot detection. Refer to
Ú page 166 to learn more about how the cameras
function with turn signal engagement or refer to
Ú page 168 to learn how to activate the cameras
through the Camera's screen.
WARNING!
If you use a trailer brake controller with your
trailer, the trailer brakes may be activated and
deactivated with the brake switch. If so, there
may not be enough brake pressure to hold
both the vehicle and the trailer on a hill when
the brake pedal is released. In order to avoid
rolling down an incline while resuming accel -
eration, manually activate the trailer brake or
apply more vehicle brake pressure prior to
releasing the brake pedal.

HSA is not a parking brake. Always apply the
parking brake fully when exiting your vehicle. Also,
be certain to place the transmission in PARK.

Failure to follow these warnings can result in a
collision or serious personal injury.
WARNING!
If TSC activates while driving, slow the vehicle
down, stop at the nearest safe location, and
adjust the trailer load to eliminate trailer sway.
